Catechist/Parish Staff/Teachers Retreat
We think its helpful for teachers and catechists to know thier own giftedness. This is the best way for them to affirm the gifts of the children they teach.
Knowing charisms provides us with the language to make our baptism come alive and not just remain something that happened in the past.
Via Maria Consulting offeres catechist workshops and retreats.
Let us know how we can help bring this to your parish or school. Click here for more information.

The Key to Happiness: Being who God created you to be
What does it mean to be happy? What does it mean to live a joy-filled life?
These questions are often at the root of our search for peace and contentment. Knowing who we are as a child of God and living life rooted in our purpose as a child of God builds the foundation for a life filled with meaning and true joy.
Discovering Your Gifts workshops help to build a foundation of solid prayer practices and discernment that lead participants to understanding who they are. The Spiritual Gifts inventory further uncovers the gifts they have been given through the power of the Holy Spirit and how they are directed toward mission.
